Lady Assistant MISSING FR Shoes Furnished Clue. —— A hat and a pair of shoes and stock- ings found by two boys by the name of Hansen furnished the clue which led to finding Charles Harrington of Franklin, Sunday afternoon after he had been missing since last Monday from the home of his brother, Frank, with whom he lived. Harrington, who is 5 and not mentally bright, was in a clump of low growth on the hill back of Mur- phy's crossing about two miles from his own home and was in such a wealk condition that it is feared he may not recover. So far as Is known he had not had anything to eat since Monday and as there are no springs anywhere near the place he was found it is thcught tbat he has also been without water. When the Hansen boys found the shoes and siockings they told their father who at once notified Frank Harrington, who with Mr. Hansen searched from noon till three o'clock Sunday afternoon before they found the missing man. He was wearing shirt and had made nothing but his a bed of his ANKLIN MAN FOUND Charles Harrington Had Made Bed Among Tree Stumps Near Murphy’s Crossing—Too Weak to Stand—Nothing to Eat Since Last Monday—Boys Findiug Hat, Stockins and underclothinz, ! and sticks 1o a s pulied up grass 4 to his couch made between two or three tree stumps. He was crawling around pulling grass when his brother came upon him and was able to totter to his feet but fell over from exhaustion. Mr, Harrington took the man home in a’wagon and had him cared for, but Sunday night he was reported as very wesk. While the searchers were looking for him, Mrs. Hansen from her home across the valley caught sight of the man as he crawled around pulling the grass for his bed and tried to make her husband hear by calling to him so as to direct the search but was unable to do so. The spot where he was found was right in the neigh- borhood around which the search has been going on ever since Harrington disappeared. Until he was found Sunday after- noon the last that his relatives had secen of him was on Monday after- noon, while the last place at which he had DLeen seen was near Meeting house hill in Franklin at about 3:45 o'clock Tuesday morning.

In the latest list of contributions for the Connecticut food ship for the re- lief of the destitute Belgians is the sum of $13.75 in four gifts made to the Norwich fund. The total contributions for the are now $18,520.11.

These are in different sizes and colors. _ Practically all, however, are printed both in Franch and in Flemish. Fach destitute non- combatant is given one of these tick- ets which entitles him or her, as the case may be, in a_definite ration, usually consisting of bread, potatoes and soup containing vegetables. Each ticket bears the name and address of the holder and specifies the number of persons in the family, the canteen from which it was issued and the number of rations to be issued daily, These interesting bits of pasteboard speak more eloquently of the situation than any words. ip SHOP STRUCK AND TELEPHONES TROUBLED In Electric Storm Here Afternoon. struc on Saturday Lightning Simon Zelinger's shop, vsed for a mattress factory, at the rear of his house, No. 234 Mt.

The trouble was all on local lines and no toll lines were affected SEAL OF CONFESSIONAL Never Broken, Through Long History of the Catholic Church, Rev. F. J. Kuster States in Sermon. Confession which this month. ments forga good confession—a thor- ough examination of consicence, deep sorrow, the firm purpose of amend- ment, a worthy, open and si fession of sins, and eatisfaction, in making reparation to God as far as pos- siple by prompt and cheerful perform- ance of the penance imposed. On the point of sorrow for sin, there may be sorrow through fear of having offended God, through a sense of grati- tude to Him for His innumerable ben- efits, or from pure love for Him, and this last constitutes perfect contrition. While a Catholic lives, and until the hour of his death, his is the obligation of confessing sin; hence, the preacher said, it is the part of wisdom to make each confession full and free and sin- cere, as though it were the last. Christ has given to his duly deputed priests the power to forgive sin, fol- lowing proper confession, contrition and reparation; the power to forgive or to retain. Confession is incumbent on ey- ery member of the Catholic church, | priest and layman. The preacher made reference to the obligation of every confessor to treat all confessions wit] confidence which nothing can brealk: and the wonderful record of the church since its deginning, when, though an occasional individual priest might lapse in other respects, not once has the in- violable seal of the confessional been broken. he has been &t He spoke of the require- R Ohi!dren‘ary FOR FLETCHER'S Board of Trad Secretary H.
